Re: would it be worth it???? need quick answer

well, if your's is damaged and V6 car is not, and you have the mechanical know-how, I'd get the V6 car and swap all your car's stuff into the V6 shell

Re: would it be worth it???? need quick answer

ok well the guy lied about the car...he said it had no body dmg or scratches in paint...clear coat was peeling off back bumper had a huge dent in pass front bumper and the hole front end of car has been replaced and wasnt even painted it was primer grey and was being hidden under a nose bra...guy wasnt even there when i showed up even though he was oppose to be finally he calls me back and says he will be there in two hours...i said forget it not interested and hoped back in truck and drove 2 hours back home...so it was like a total of 4 hours of driving there and back...big waste of my time...bummer too i was excited about it...
